Conversation at a Bagel Store on 3rd Avenue
Deb stops at a bagel store on 3rd Avenue on her way to work. She has not been there for quite some time. She waits on line for her turn to order. People fill the store and there is limited personal space.
Suddenly, Bagel Store Worker, recognizes Deb.
Bagel Store Worker: Mi amor, where have you been?
Deb: I know, I know, I haven’t been here in a while.
BSW: You look so thin. Have you been sick or have you been cheating on me?
The line of people look at Deb.
Deb: No, no, I would never cheat on you, Bagel Store Worker. But yes, I’ve been sick. I had mono.
BSW: Callate! So you have been cheating on me.
The line of people laugh.
Deb: No, no. I didn’t cheat on you. My doctor told me that these days you don’t just get mono from kissing. It’s airborne. So don’t worry, Bagel Store Worker, I definitey got it from standing next to someone else who had it.
The line of people step away from Deb.
